Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

Much more sporting success there compared to our relegation rivals. A 3rd party observer might say Reading are gaining a continued sporting advantage compared to their competitors, by being able to maintain a superior playing squad which it can't actually afford. And our rivals are all sticking to ...

Re: Opposition fans back from the game

Assume the CB reference was for Mbengue rather than Bindon? Interesting comment on Craig as he looked so much better than Savage the previous week, having come off the bench.

Re: Run of Six pointers

How do we reckon the hearing goes? 1 immediate point, 3 suspended unless we pay a 125% deposit in 30 days? Which we all know Dai won't pay. So then a race to get exclusivity and a buyer advanced enough that they're willing to help out. Dai has made it clear he won't pay and the EFL are charging him...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

relating to the accounts ending in June 2022 so we've had a further 18 months of losses racking up but summarises the broad position. If you look at how much Renhe Sports Management owes Great Shine, it was at £220m at that point in time. Hence figures of £250m now being banded around. That figure w...

You may never have heard of him before the Port Vale abandonment but he's not a Johnny Come Lately in quite the way you suggest. He's a Bluenose but has been tweeting about Chinese corruption and football ownership for a long time. He was tweeting about Reading and Dai's dodgy dealings and backgrou...

Re: Rival Watch

Really not interested in us making any signings at all. If we lose someone impt then maybe but otherwise would be happy to see no movement at all At a push an experienced back up for Smith and at a real push a left midfielder. Otherwise we’ve plenty of depth as it is Carlisle rolling the dice a bit...

Though also tbf that ‘end product’ is quite a large range. It’s improved crossing, shooting and decision making. All seem to have got a lot better imo Indeed - would have to say it is likely a combination of confidence, coaching and good man-management that has got him to where he is. I look forwar...

Snowflake Royal He's not being played because he's an unfit waster.

But for the record he's on: 63(9) since his transfer to us.

Thank you - could be a 75 game milestone (given he's on 74). But more likely he can't be arsed any more given Selles' recent comments

Interesting point. Anyone know how many games Ejaria has played since his transfer? Is he not being played because he is close to triggering another appearance based milestone fee?

Re: I've lost count - Embargos, HMRC Payent defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

Per the 30 June 2022 (so somewhat out of date) the amount owed by the club to group undertakings (being Renhe Sports Management, the immediate parent company) is £83m as the EFL has forced Dai to convert debt each year into equity. Assuming that number is still broadly correct then the most Dai cou...

Re: I've lost count - Embargos, HMRC Payent defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

No. Although HMRC cannot put a business or club into administration, the rules that apply automatically install HMRC as the preferred creditor should a business go into administration. If indeed HMRC are owed anything. As I understand it creditors go for liquidation to get their money, administrati...

the fact due diligence has been confirmed as ongoing is also a positive. Shows there is proper interest and it is quite far along. May still end up coming to nothing or not meet Dai's expectations. Biggest threat now is HMRC and the club receiving another winding up petition. For repeat offenders, H...

Re: another, another, yes another - you heard me right, another embargo 2023 for late PAYE payments

Let's not forget that the training ground was at least part funded by selling the old one. It's not just flat additional value / cost for the club. The club's value when sold previously included the stadium and the old training ground. 10 odd years ago the club was valued at ~£50m when it was in th...
